Q: Couldn’t I just attach drywall to the tile with adhesive instead of screws?

• <div><p>Here&rsquo;s another instance of where the answer is you <i>could</i>, but that doesn&rsquo;t mean you <i>should</i>. Yes, part of the issue is getting the drywall to stay in place on the tiles, and it&rsquo;s understandable that screws will crack the tiles and cause them to crumble. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s a much better idea to screw drywall into studs, not your porcelain or ceramic tile. But aside from issues with attaching the drywall, it&rsquo;s also about ensuring a smooth application without trapping moisture inside.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to skim coat new drywall?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re installing new drywall, you may need to skim coat the drywall first for a smooth finish and to allow the primer to adhere to the wall. It&rsquo;s only necessary if there are imperfections in your drywall due to issues with the studs or improper drywall installation. If you&rsquo;re refreshing existing walls, you may want to skim coat if there are imperfections across the wall. As an alternative, you can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/diy-drywall-repair-tips-expert.htm">repair your drywall</a> and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-sand-drywall.htm">sand it</a> for a smooth finish before painting.</p></div>

Q: How much does wall installation cost?

• <div><p>Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to cover a whole wall to soundproof?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll get better results if you soundproof the whole wall. A hole through which light can pass can also let sound waves in. Acoustical or silicone sealant applied to holes and cracks can block enough sound to make a difference. However, the more layers absorb vibrations and slow or stop sound waves, the less noise you&rsquo;ll have. </p></div>

Q: Can you use beadboard instead of drywall?

• <div><p>Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.</p></div>
